PLIME! How the hell have you been!? It's been a long time since I've dropped in to say a few words and check up on my favourite internet forum. I miss you all so much. I get to chat with 86Apex from time to time via PS3 messages, but that just isn't the same as the Plime chat room, eh.

Anyway, a lot has happened since I last visited. I mentioned the promotion that was offered to me, but I turned it down as I felt I was not ready for THAT much responsibility. Also, it was on night shift and the pay wasn't much more than I am making right now, so long story short... I am still a Team Leader in the Quality Department.

Second, Mrs. Punthe is doing well and is having minimal back and hip trouble for the last couple of months now. She was bought oot from the company she was working for and has since became a superb house wife. She has been taking great care of me and the puddy cats.

Now on to the big news...























WE'RE PREGNANT!!!

That's right! Punthe Jr. will be arriving aboot June of 2010. We decided, what the hell, and gave it a shot and voila... first try pregnancy, eh! We are very excited and anxious as well as the entire family. My mother actually sprang from her chair as if she were sitting on a hot plate. My father shook my hand and said, 'well done, son'.

Anyway, this little news update on the world of Punthe probably didn't need a thread of it's own, but I am such the chest-flexing, grinning ear-to-ear, proud father-to-be that I decided I'm gonna make a thread of my own anyway. However, hope to chat with you all sometime soon. My hours are still ridiculous, to say the least, so I will be hard pressed to find time to drop back in. So, for now, take care and enjoy the internet and freedom for me. I will live vicariously through you all, eh!

Congrats, dude! Soon, there will be a little Punthe (or Punthette)running around. I hope you can come on more often. We miss ya, buddy. :)

Congratulations, Punthe!

Congrats dude, Hope it all works oot well!

You know how hard it was not to spill the beans? Geeze! Make me suffer longer why don't you! :D

Congrats again punthe, all the best to you and the Mrs. Can't wait for pictures of the little puntheling. *Secret PlayStation handshake*

Don't forget to eat the placenta, eh.

Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Punthe!! Glad to see you're still alive!! I've been wondering where you went.

Congrats to you both for "making busy" productive!

Oh yeah... I almost forgot one more little update. I have lost 21 lbs. in the last 3 months because I have been walking nearly 10 miles per day. Being a Team Leader has its perks in many, many ways. PUNTHE OOT!

I opened this expected a new theme park opening.

I'm only slightly disappointed.

Congrats on becoming a daddy. :)

Congratulations Daddy Punthe!! We miiiiiss you!! Can't wait to see the little spawn decked out in sony baby garb ;)

*tacklehugs*

Congratulations! Hard to believe that was the first time you had sex with your wife, but good for you anyway.

So, now they're letting Canadians procreate? What is this world coming to?

Congrats on the pregnancy! I look forward to mocking you when you're up all night with a crying baby.

How did you impregnate your wife? Is there some sort of PS3 peripheral, or...?

Also, this thread sounds like a band. I would listen to The Punthe Experience. For a couple of minutes.

See, I was totally thinking it was a ride! Like the Superman Ride or something.

Imagine the line!

Now I'm thinking it sounds like a sex toy.

EDIT: ...Anyway, congrats! That's just great.

Dude...lines for sex toys?

That's creepy!

Edit: Awww, look what we did to Punthe's nice thread...

Kick ass dude! Be sure to show us pics when the bundle arrives! :O)

Congrats to you and Mrs. Punthe!!! That is very exciting indeed. (((hugs))) for you both.

They grow up so fast. Before you know it...



Major congrats to you and the Mrs.

Punthe!!!

That is so great!! You have some wonderful times ahead of you. You also have some....um....other kind of times ahead of you, too but believe me, they are all worth it!!

Congrats!!

Oh, and happy upcoming b-day! :)
